On the blessed boat, the sea water is flooding, Haiyan is shocked, Cao Bianjiao sits in the cabin, tastes the tea in his hand, and is also very leisurely, he didn't know these before, but after achieving this position, he gradually became more elegant, followed Liu Ruyi, Kou Baimen, they became gentle, followed Li Yan, Cheng Tianyi became elegant, so he also began to taste tea to entertain himself.

"Good tea, I didn't expect that I just said that I wanted a few catties, but I didn't expect the villagers to be so enthusiastic, and gave me a big bag, which is enough for 100 catties, how long do I have to drink it, and you will go back to those ones, and then give them some, which is a gift I gave them! By the way, can the money be given? ”

Li Yan also took a sip of tea lightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, general!" I have already asked He Bin, and he said that the price of this camellia in previous years was about two taels of silver and one catty, and I gave them two hundred silver dollars and asked He Bin to hand them over on their behalf. ”

"That's good! Two hundred silver dollars, for us is not very big, but enough to feed many families for many years, I have done a survey, in Yuezhou, a family of four, only need three taels of silver a year, it means that they are full this year, a little more in Nanjing, but ten taels of silver is enough, so two hundred silver dollars, can not be given. ”

"I don't know what the situation in the north is, although the Manchus were injured last year, but in terms of their strength all day long, they didn't suffer much damage, I don't think they will sit back and wait for us to destroy themselves, they will definitely make some moves, but I don't know how they will arrange it?"

"Don't worry, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, we will wait for the attack, even if it is slowly consumed, it can also drag them down, the economy of the north is rotten, if they can't stabilize the situation, they don't need us to force an attack, they will also collapse by themselves." Cao Bianjiao was still quite confident in this, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty was eager to move south, wanting to use the economy of the south to make up for the depression in the north.

"Having said that, but after all, my heart is not steady, I don't believe in those officials in the court, the general is not in charge of the court, I am worried that they will neglect the government, or seek their own interests, or attack each other, if so, how many people can concentrate on the administration and worry about the implementation of the general's new policy?"

"What you said makes sense, I'm not here, they will inevitably slack off, I'm not very relieved, no matter whether the Manchu Qing will make a move, anyway, we have already returned, after returning to Jinjiang, we will rest for a day, we are ready to return to Beijing, there is a big wood, I believe that there will be nothing on the Fujian side for the time being, plus Chen Zilong is temporarily stationed in Fuzhou to help stabilize the situation in Fujian, I don't think anything will happen, I don't want to tell you, in fact, I am more worried about Zhang Xianzhong, whether he can withstand the offensive of the Qing army, If the Qing army followed the example of the Western Jin Dynasty to destroy Wu and dealt with us from top to bottom, then the land of Sichuan would bear the brunt, and I really don't know if Zhang Xianzhong's men and horses would be able to hold on. ”

Just when Cao Bianjiao was worried about Zhang Xianzhong, the Qing army had already begun to plan an offensive, taking into account that the Southern Ming had the advantage of the boat division, patrolling both sides of the Yellow River, which was the weakness of the Qing army, and Cao Bianjiao arranged heavy troops along the river defense line, as many as 110,000 troops, and there were tens of thousands of elite Cao generals in Fengyang who could go north to meet the battle at any time, the Qing army decided to suspend the offensive against the Southern Ming, and should march from Sichuan, first take advantage of the situation to seize Sichuan, and then seize Yungui, so that the Southern Ming can form a grand strategic encirclement, and the Qing army has heard clearly, The garrison of the Ming army in the land of Yungui was weak, and they didn't take it to heart at all, so they decided to take advantage of the summer to determine the battle plan, and then prepare food and salary, and then when the autumn was cool, immediately send troops to attack Sichuan, it is best to be able to take Zhang Xianzhong under his command, so that hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses can be obtained for no reason, and with the southward attack, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

For the sake of the country's interests, this time Dolgon also made a major sacrifice, sending Haoge, who was stationed in Shandong, as the general of Jingyuan, to control all the soldiers and horses in the northwest, and the generals of Yanxi County, Luo Luohun, Wu Sangui and other generals, led the 100,000 troops of the Manchu and Han dynasties, and marched to the west with all their might, and Liu Jinzhong, the former rebel general of the Great Western Army, as a guide, accompanied the guide of the Qing army to the south, preparing to march immediately after the autumn cool.

"According to our detailed investigation report, the Qing army gathered in Xi'an in large numbers, even Shandong Haoge has arrived in Xi'an, the intention of the Qing army is obvious, that is, to prepare to attack my Daxi, the previous Duoduo suffered a big loss in Jiangnan, they dare not rashly attack the Ming Dynasty now, thinking that my Daxi is a soft persimmon, so they want to attack us, you all talk about it, how to deal with it now?"

Chengdu, in the palace of the Great Western Kingdom, Zhang Xianzhong, who was dressed in a dragon robe, was also frowning, the combat power of the Qing army should not be underestimated, he knew very well that the Ming Dynasty was also defeated first and then won, which and Cao Bianjiao was good at using soldiers, but also because the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty were feuds, so a large number of loyal martyrs would dare to die, but what would happen in the country, Zhang Xianzhong did not dare to guarantee, with the first, there would be a second, there would be no fewer people who were afraid, and when the war was unfavorable, there would be no fewer people who wanted to surrender, and the Ming Dynasty was still like this, Not to mention the Great Western Kingdom.

"The soldiers will block, the water will come to cover, the Qing army wants to deal with our Great Western Army, it is not so easy, we still have tens of thousands of elite soldiers, hundreds of generals who can fight, have been in war for a long time, loyal to their father, and are willing to die for their father." Ainengqi was also the first to stand up and answer at the moment, he was a rough man, he didn't have so much thought, so he thought about fighting.

"Father, the sons and daughters think that this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, the Manchu Qing Dynasty went south, it is not so easy, Bashu is more dangerous, we can defend with the danger, block the attack, consume their sharpness, and when they are not supported, we can defend as an attack, and we can also ask for help from Cao Bianjiao of the Ming Dynasty, we signed an alliance between the two sides, we fail, they will also be very dangerous, the truth of the cold lips and teeth, Cao Bianjiao is a smart person, naturally understand, and ask the father to be relieved, the Manchu Qing will definitely be defeated!"

Compared with Ai Nengqi, Sun Kewang is much more sleek, he is the first person to follow Zhang Xianzhong, in addition to fighting bravely, because of his sleek and clever, so he will be the most important to Zhang Xianzhong, and he is the focus of training.

"I hope what I said is very true, consistent with what I think, there are many dangers in Sichuan, even Liu Jinzhong does not fully understand, we can completely defend against the danger, step by step to consume the sharp spirit of the Qing army, and then when their army is unstable, the whole army will counterattack, and then we will be able to follow Cao Bianjiao's move and annihilate the Qing army in the south."

Zhang Xianzhong also glanced at Sun Kewang with appreciation, which made Sun Kewang very happy.

"You each go back, gather troops and horses, prepare ordnance, prepare food and salary, the Qing army is preparing, we must also prepare everything before they go to battle, as long as the Qing army dares to come, we will let them come back at that time!" Zhang Xianzhong also ordered them to go at the moment, let them all get ready.

Sun Kewang also stood up and said: "Father, the son is willing to lead the troops to garrison Hanzhong to relieve his father's troubles!" ”

"Good! My son is brave, then you will go to Hanzhong to garrison! Zhang Xianzhong is also happy to do this, he doesn't have to go in person, he can continue to stay in Chengdu, and the matter of fighting will be handed over to the people below, after all, he is also the emperor now.
